“Think! There's nothing certain in our future! All we can hope for is a vague continuation. But in spite of that, you're going to keep on living. You can't give up on life just because it's vague. It's a question of possibilities...”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Asakawa himself didn't much care if the company made money or lost it. All that mattered to him was whether or not the work was engaging. No matter how easy a job was physically, if it didn't involve imagination, it usually ended up exhausting you.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“...Vào lúc này, hãy thành thực với cảm giác của chính bản thân mình! Trước mặt chúng ta là một tương lai bất định. Mọi chuyện cuối cùng rồi đều có kết cục của nó. Và biết đâu loài người sẽ giải quyết đưcọ mọi thứ bằng tài trí của mình. Đối với loài người, đây chính là một thử thách. Ở thời nào cũng vậy, quỉ sứ luôn thay đổi hình dạng để tồn tại. Dù chúng ta có ra sức tiêu diệt, bọn chúng cũng sẽ vẫn cứ xuất hiện mà thôi.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Of course, a story always begins with such a coincidence.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Sometimes it was interesting and sometimes it wasn't, but right now he couldn't be bothered to go into it in detail.”

“You know, a lot of strange things happen in this world.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“If you took any two incidents, you could find things in common if you looked hard enough.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring

― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“I'm used to it. Try slamming your fist into a brick wall every day. Eventually you won't even feel the pain anymore.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“You know about the Big Bang, right? They believe that the universe was born in a tremendous explosion twenty billion years ago. I can mathematically express the form of the universe, from its birth to the present. It's all about differential equations. Most phenomena in the universe can be expressed with differential equations, you know. Using them, you can figure out what the universe looked like a hundred million years ago, ten billion years ago, even a second or a tenth of a second after that initial explosion. But. No matter how far we go back, no matter how we try to express it, we just can't know what it looked like at zero, at the very moment of the explosion. And there's another thing. How is our universe going to end? Is the universe expanding or contracting? See, we don't know the beginning and we don't know the end; all we can know about is the in-between stuff. And that, my friend, is what life is like.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“A fundamental sense of terror is built into us humans, on the instinctual level.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Think! There's nothing certain in our future! All we can hope for is a vague continuation. But in spite of that, you're going to keep on living. You can't give up on life just because it's vague. It's a question of possibilities.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Don't worry. There's nothing down there. Your biggest enemy is your imagination.”
― Kōji Suzuki, quote from Ring
“Aquellos que hayan visto estas imágenes están condenados a morir a esta misma hora exactamente dentro de una semana”

“For if we regard space and time as properties that must, as regards their possibility, be found in things in themselves, [...] then we really cannot blame the good Bishop Berkeley for degrading bodies to mere illusion. Nay, even our own existence, which would thus be made dependent on the self-subsistent reality of a non-entity such as time, would, along with this time, be changed into mere illusion - an absurdity of which hitherto no one has been guilty.”
― Immanuel Kant, quote from Critique of Pure Reason
“Bottom line, you didn’t take care of what was yours. Now, as Nina has explained, you’ve lost it, I found it and it’s mine.”

Yeah. I know what you mean. All you soul-full people look alike to us, too. (Acheron)”

WatermelonBookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
